Somewhat surprised it is only four.

The problem I have with Shanahan’s suspension explanations is that he takes into account whether a victimized player suffers an injury regardless of the visciousness of an act. It would seem that the failure to inflict severe injury as when one player forcefully drills another into the glass from behind, does not make the attempt any less heinous.

“the department of player safety has decided”?? Didn’t he use the term “I have decided” in all the other ones? Maybe I’m reading too much into that, but it caught me off guard.
